A. Overview of hippocampal dynamics during movie watching. FMRI data from the hippocampus were measured at the voxel level, and low-dimensional subspaces for two types of novelty and memorability were ...

Brain waves carry information. A new 'Cytoelectric Coupling' hypothesis posits that fluctuating electric fields optimize brain network efficiency and stability by shaping the brain's molecular ...

New research provides evidence that electric fields shared among neurons via 'ephaptic coupling' provide the coordination necessary to assemble the multi-region neural ensembles ('engrams') that ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature Communications, researchers investigated whether post-encoding ripples improve emotional memory through amygdala-hippocampal memory restoration or ...

Encoding information in DNA has long seemed like a promising way to secure data for the long term, but so far it has required an expert touch. It turns out that you don’t need to be a scientist to ...

Sometimes, we search for information in long-term memory and find it—a name, a movie title, or a vivid example to support a general conclusion. Other times, we're unable to recall what we believe we ...

A new technical paper titled “Integrated non-reciprocal magneto-optics with ultra-high endurance for photonic in-memory computing” was published by researchers at UC Santa Barbara, University of ...

Myth 1: Memory is too flawed and impermanent to be trustworthy. Fact: Extensive research supports the accuracy and dependability of long-term memories—for both personal experiences and experimental ...

Research undertaken over the last century has revealed that sleep plays a role in the mechanisms directing normal cognitive and developmental processes, including the consolidation of memories. This ...

Why your short-term memory falters, and how to make it better. Credit...Joyce Lee for The New York Times Supported by By Caroline Hopkins Q: Some thoughts vanish from my brain as soon as I think of ...
